If you are getting a compilation error please rebuild the google-breakpad package

Keep getting "A failure occurred in build()" Did try rebuilding google-breakpad but no change.

fatal error: bytecode stream in file ‘/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/15.1.1/../../../../lib/libbreakpad_client.a’ generated with LTO version 15.0 instead of the expected 15.1 compilation terminated.

I updated, and then it broke.

I have tried linking my hypr and hyprland config directories to XDG_CONFIG_DIRS and still get the same error. This was working for weeks, and then after an update won't work.

Could not find "default" config directory or shell.qml in any valid config path.

It is really weird that some source files are packed into the zst file:

but running the cmake --install build alone won't reproduce the problem.

If you are getting a compilation error please rebuild the google-breakpad package

Applied your patches @yvvki

Alternative package versioning and updated url, probably you can set the name to append -git for paru intergration.

I think the hook is supposed to be included in the source, otherwise doing ../.. while building would break some wrapper like aura.

To be exact: build is failing with custom makepkg's SRCPKGDIST.
